Yeesh — I thought the eruption of schadenfreude from New-England-Patriots-dissers against quarterback Tom Brady was unsettling -– but “Deflategate” ain’t anything.
At least not compared to the slavering glee storming social media over “Duggargate”. Now that is positively gob-smacking.
Twenty-seven-year-old Josh Duggar, oldest scion of Jim Bob and Michelle, whose 19 Kids and Counting was one of TLC’s most popular reality-TV offerings, has admitted to molesting – described as “inappropriate touching” — several young girls, approximately twelve years ago; some of his sisters among them. Mom and Dad Duggar addressed the situation — but not forcefully enough by the reckoning of some howling detractors. http://www.people.com/article/josh-duggar-molestation-accusations-d...
The series was unceremoniously yanked from the network’s broadcast schedule. Paying sponsors fled. Josh Duggar issued a public mea culpa and promptly resigned his position with the high-profile, pro-family, pro-traditional-marriage Family Research Council (FRC).
Still, forces on the Gay-is-grand, Real-Christianity-s*cks Left can barely contain their outrage; or their giddiness.
Television personality Montel Williams, for instance: Upon this news’ breaking, the fifty-eight-year-old, former talk-host gloatingly blasted the perpetrator, his family, even his employer. “Josh Duggar is a bigot, slimebag. Whole family is, and FRC is a scam.” http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/montel-williams-blasts-josh-duggar-...
Of course, Williams lurched to Luke 6:37 (“Judge not, lest you be judged”), the favorite, go-to Scripture for those wanting to ignore the rest of what the Bible teaches. http://www.mediaite.com/online/montel-williams-defends-duggar-rant-...
I’d long regarded Montel as a not particularly penetrating, standard-issue, celebrity-culture liberal — but his stock inched up a bit in my index owing to his recent efforts focusing attention on Marines wrongly imprisoned abroad. His venomous, hysterical rants in this Duggar matter, however, have tempered even that; it develops he’s just another spouter of fuzzy-headed leftism.
“And to those who claim I hate Christians,” fumed Williams toward some of his Duggar-supporting critics , “how dare you?” http://www.mediaite.com/online/montel-williams-defends-duggar-rant-...
Well, Montel, maybe because of tweets like this: “Josh Duggar, a world class bigot … has consistently stated that LGBT folks r a danger to kids … NOPE, JOSH DUGGAR IS.” [Emphasize in original]. http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/montel-williams-blasts-josh-duggar-... http://clashdaily.com/2015/06/montel-and-the-divine-miss-m-simply-d...;
